An objective evaluation of implementation fidelity is integral to an accurate assessment of outcomes in a complex intervention. Process evaluation is one way to assess implementation fidelity. The LARK Hypertension study is a complex randomized trial aimed at determining whether community health workers (CHWs) equipped with a tailored behavioral communication strategy and decision-support tools, can increase linkage and retention of hypertensive individuals to a care program and thereby significantly reduce blood pressure. This thesis describes the findings of hypertension-related knowledge and skills retention evaluations in CHWs trained by the LARK study, two components of a larger process evaluation. LARK trained CHWs exhibited relatively low levels of study intervention fidelity but had good knowledge of certain aspects of hypertension management. As well as providing useful information to the LARK study, this thesis adds valuable research to the scarce body of literature about process evaluation of CHW driven interventions.
